Brussels, 8 May 2023
The Delegation of the EU to Israel is looking forward to celebrating Europe Day on May 9 in its host country, as it does every year.
Regrettably, this year we have decided to cancel the usual diplomatic reception, as we do not want to offer a platform to someone whose views contradict the values the European Union stands for.
However, the Europe Day cultural event for the Israeli public will be maintained to celebrate with our friends and partners in Israel the strong and constructive bilateral relationship.
